【UK media reports: Under pressure, Trump plans to lower tariffs on steel products】
On February 12, 2026, in a press release, the UK's Financial Times wrote:
Citing sources who accompanied Trump, Donald Trump plans to reduce tariffs on some steel and aluminum products. The sources explained the reason: officials from the US Department of Commerce and the Office of the US Trade Representative believe consumers are being affected by the tariffs. They specifically pointed out that the prices of baking molds and beverage cans have surged. In addition, American economists generally believe that the Trump tariffs are actually paid by American residents, not foreign companies.
